    AA breakdown cover.. I've been on the phone to them at least six? seven times now and they keep sending me a breakdown cover card with my Mum's name on it! (And she's not even with them!!!)

    Can these people be anymore incompetent enough not to understand that I am Mr.. and not a Mrs?

    Sigh....

    My 3 year old black labrador was run over this morning. Killed almost instantly.

    I'm more angry than upset. Angry that I saw it happen and couldn't do anything to stop it and more angy still because the van never even stopped. It just drove off and left her dying in the road.

    If I ever find who was driving that van I'll show them what hell looks like.

    That's dreadful, ever so sorry to hear that.

    If you have the reg plate report it to the police as the driver was legally required to stop.

    Christmas.

    A Christian (mostly) celebration that all walks of none religious people follow. (contradictory or what).

    Anyway,
    - I want to shop for every day things.
    - I want to travel out like its a normal time of year and not get stuck in traffic whilst the rest of the moronic world fumble around like decrepid sheep.
    - I want to go to the pub without seeing crap lights.
    - I want to go to sleep without my window lighting up from the village idiots over the road hammering the national grid whilst claiming for the electricity from my hard earned tax dollars whilst they dole it up smoking, causing noise, light pollution and failing from watching TV like the reast of us resulting in 8 or 9 brats that are dragged up rather than brought up.
    - I want to turn the radio on and listen to day to day music. Have we not heard enough of the has been singing crap Christmas songs yet? Is 70 years + of Bing Crosby really justifiable?
    - I want to turn on the TV without seeing masses of repeats of crap Christmas films.
    - I want to walk in to my local Tesco or ASDA without listening to announcements about how a mediocre hudl tablet or what ever it is is the best Christmas present ever for Nan! My Nans dead and if I gave her one of those I would have it thrown back at me and told to go and get a board game as that's what Christmas is all about (socialising with friends and family rather than sitting on a tablet or console being antisocial).

    Finally.. whats with all the nasty rich food and overpriced pub menus? Its terrible!

    I kept up with the show but I got fed up with it a long time ago. I preferred the earlier seasons when things were a bit slower / seemed more reasonable.

    Edit: Really sorry to hear about your dog, Tomhyde. It's tough losing a pet. :(

    So sorry to hear that :'( I'm also angered to hear that the van drove off and left her there.

    I witnessed a man picking his Jack Russell up off the road after it had been hit and killed a few months ago. I stopped to offer assistance but it was too late, the dog had been killed almost instantly as well. I was heartbroken for that man, he'd lost his best friend and had to go back and tell his wife the bad news. I drove home in tears that night :(

    In essence, women. And it's a full-on stereotypical whinge as well that I thought I'd never have to make either. I had the blinkered (or aloof depending on how you look at it) view that more guys were idiotic arseholes and brought it on themselves, but frankly my mind has been blown at how manipulative someone can be and still paint the other party as the bad person. Realising after that she'd also tried to turn me against a tonne of my friends was the icing on the devious cake.

    Ugh.

    I don't think I've ever been quite this angry with anybody before so I'll stop this here before I turn this into a page long vent.

    I've also discovered that unprovoked tears do not engender sympathy with me, I just get kinda confused.

    EDIT: Just had a rather grovelling apology, 'I'm really not that crazy'. Hmmm..

    :hehe:

    In other news:

    I tried my first cigarette in almost two years. It was awful, so bad I couldn't finish it. I'm gutted - as I had planned to enjoy the occasional cigarette/cigar every now and again.

    Proper first world problem, right there!
